Mark, are you using just 2 screws on your spur gear or did you drill 2 additional holes?

I also have used an Xray 48dp spur in the past with just two screws in modified, no problems with it.

Interesting design but I think that the small thing for the servo is very exposed...

I prefer the Exotek one... More constant in flex and better hysteresis..

It's in french but you can take a look on the pictures...

Yep just the two screws. No wobble or problems for 6 months of racing so far

Lou,

I should have showed you my servo saver last week at the state race. It is the High torque Tamiya Servo saver with the 3 Racing Purple servo saver horn for that saver. Works great!!

If you use Yokomo, its a perfect fit. Tamiya you need to file a bit to fit into the TCX c-hub unless u flip the flange tube.

If you use the XRAY knuckles, shims are needed.

Its a good tuning option that works very well in lower traction conditions, makes the car more stable and slightly more steering.
